So this problem has been going on for couple of weeks...

Any alert box pop-ups are not showing up in my google chrome.

For example, I was taking a test on blackboard and at the end when you submit finish, usually an alert pop up box would show up with options like are you sure you are finished with two option boxed labeled yes or no.

Now none of these alert box pop-ups are showing up. I know they are there because when I try to click on anything, it won't let me and keeps making error blink sounds.

I have to hit enter/esc to get rid of the alert box (that I can't see) and be able to use my browser again.

Is this a glitch by chrome?

I tried pressing [alt][space][m] and dragging my mouse to maybe get the alert box on the screen if it was off to side somewhere but it's not working.

it could just be blackboard, i'm not sure if they "updated" their system and broke it, typically BB lol

you could try clearing cache/cookies and see if that fixes your issue

it's not just blackboard though

it's same for any other sites, just mentioned Blackboard as an example.

I already tried clearing cache and cookies but none of them seems to work

Have you checked the Chrome notifications settings?

Mine was on "Ask when a site wants to show notifications: You’ll get an alert from Chrome whenever a site wants to show you notifications. "

But I changed to "Allow all sites to show notifications: You’ll automatically see notifications from all websites." to see if it will be fixed but it didn't work
